== Description
Rack::Test is a small, simple testing API for Rack apps. It can be used on its
own or as a reusable starting point for Web frameworks and testing libraries
to build on. Most of its initial functionality is an extraction of Merb 1.0's
request helpers feature.
== Features
* Maintains a cookie jar across requests
* Easily follow redirects when desired
* Set request headers to be used by all subsequent requests
* Small footprint. Approximately 200 LOC
== Example
require "rack/test"
class HomepageTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
include Rack::Test::Methods
def app
MyApp.new
end
def test_redirect_logged_in_users_to_dashboard
authorize "bryan", "secret"
get "/"
follow_redirect!
assert_equal "http://example.org/redirected", last_request.url
assert last_response.ok?
end
end
== Install
To install the latest release as a gem:
